At IBS 2026, Jordan Smith walks through the Mbrico booth, a floating tile system designed for outdoor decking applications. The product uses a track-and-pedestal setup that keeps tiles slightly separated, making the entire floor surface free-draining — a practical advantage over traditional grouted tile, particularly in areas adjacent to pools or interior thresholds where water management matters. Smith breaks down three real-world installation conditions from an active project: a balcony with pedestals, a steel-framed pool deck with track-mounted tiles, and a concrete porch where conventional thinset and grout ultimately made more budget sense than the floating system.
